The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 68

Sarah was embarrassed by his questions and couldn’t help blushing. She knew Marco certainly had recalled the night with her. His eyes were innocent, clear and earnest. Her anger and death wish gradually vanished. Somehow she nodded, “All right. Let’s take a walk.”

Marco was happy and excited to hear that. He held Sarah’s hand and ran towards the backyard of the house.

Sarah tried to break free from his hand, but in vain. She stopped struggling and asked, “Where are you taking me?”

“Miss, you’re a city girl and I bet you haven’t ridden a horse before. We have a horse. I can teach you how to ride a horse, what do you think?”

Sarah saw a tall black horse right in the backyard.

“It’s so tall. May I touch it?”

Sarah had never ridden a horse before and it was actually the first time she had ever seen a horse in real life. She was intrigued.

“Of course you can. It has a good temper. You can not only touch the horse, but ride it.”

Marco held Sarah’s waist and helped her mount the horse.

Then he mounted the horse himself. The saddle wasn’t large enough for two, so Marco had to sit very close to Sarah. His strong chest was pressed against her back.

Sarah’s heart jumped a little and she immediately leaned her body forward. She didn't think it was a good idea for her to be so close to Marco now.

Marco didn’t feel this way at all. He just wanted to take Sarah for a ride so that she could forget about her troubles for a while. “Miss, sit tight. I hope you will enjoy the ride.”

It was a moonlight night. The horse was galloping and Sarah’s long hair was blowing in the wind. Her hair smelled nice and it was tickling his face.

“Aha, it’s so fast! Could it run faster?”

Sarah was excited on the horseback because it was the first time she had ride a horse. She couldn’t help laughing.

It took a person who had ridden a horse to truly know how wonderful it felt on the horseback of a galloping horse. It was almost as good as flying.

“Of course it could run faster. But it’s your first time on the horseback, so I’m afraid your body would ache afterwards.”

Sitting right behind her, Marco had to shout to make himself heard, because the wind was very strong and loud.

“I am scared at all. Please, run faster!”

Sarah didn’t follow his advice. It felt so good.

Marco had to urge the horse to speed up again. The strong wind was blowing in their face and their clothes were fluttering in the wind.
